Budget<br />

A secretive arrangement granted a percentage of the CIA budget. <strong>The</strong> MK-ULTRA<br />

director was granted six percent of the CIA operating budget in 1953, without oversight or<br />

accounting.<br />

Experiments<br />

CIA documents suggest that "chemical, biological <strong>and</strong> radiological" means were investigated<br />

for the purpose of mind control as part of MK-ULTRA.<br />

Drugs<br />

LSD<br />

Early efforts focused on LSD, which later came to dominate many of MK-ULTRA's programs.<br />

Experiments included administering LSD to CIA employees, military personnel, doctors,<br />

other government agents, prostitutes, mentally ill patients, <strong>and</strong> members of the general<br />

public in order to study their reactions. LSD <strong>and</strong> other drugs were usually administered<br />

without the subject's knowledge <strong>and</strong> informed consent, a violation of the Nuremberg Code<br />

that the U.S. agreed to follow after WWII.<br />

Efforts to "recruit" subjects were often illegal, even discounting the fact that drugs were being<br />

administered (though actual use of LSD, for example, was legal in the United States until<br />

October 6, 1966). In Operation Midnight Climax, the CIA set up several brothels to obtain a<br />

selection of men who would be too embarrassed to talk about the events. <strong>The</strong> men were<br />

dosed with LSD, <strong>and</strong> the brothels were equipped with one-way mirrors <strong>and</strong> the "sessions"<br />

were filmed for later viewing <strong>and</strong> study.<br />

Some subjects' participation was consensual, <strong>and</strong> in many of these cases, the subjects<br />

appeared to be singled out for even more extreme experiments. In one case, volunteers<br />

were given LSD for 77 consecutive days.<br />

LSD was eventually dismissed by MK-ULTRA's researchers as too unpredictable in its<br />

effects. Although useful information was sometimes obtained through questioning subjects<br />

on LSD, not uncommonly the most marked effect would be the subject's absolute <strong>and</strong> utter<br />

certainty that they were able to withst<strong>and</strong> any form of interrogation attempt, even physical<br />

torture.<br />

Other drugs<br />

Another technique investigated was connecting a barbiturate IV into one arm <strong>and</strong> an<br />

amphetamine IV into the other. <strong>The</strong> barbiturates were released into the subject first, <strong>and</strong> as<br />

soon as the subject began to fall asleep, the amphetamines were released. <strong>The</strong> subject<br />

would begin babbling incoherently at this point, <strong>and</strong> it was sometimes possible to ask<br />

questions <strong>and</strong> get useful answers.<br />

Other experiments involved heroin, morphine, temazepam (used under code name MK-<br />

SEARCH), mescaline, psilocybin, scopolamine, marijuana, alcohol, <strong>and</strong> sodium pentothal.<br />
